Frequently Asked Questions
Is the CAPM vocabulary game free?
Yes. The game is free to play with no sign-up. Signing in adds AI explanations for any term.
How do the CAPM vocabulary games work?
There are 4 games built on 34 CAPM terms. In Guess the Term, a clue describes one term and you have six tries to spell it, with green, yellow and gray letters showing how close you are. In Term Match, six terms appear as colored tiles; swap neighbors to line up three or more of the same term, and each match shows what the term means. In Term Pairs, twelve face-down cards hide six pairs of terms; flip two at a time to find each pair, and every pair you find shows what the term means. In Term Search, five terms hide in a grid of letters, reading across, down or diagonally; drag across a term to circle it, and each term you find shows what it means.
Where do the CAPM terms come from?
OpenExamPrep researched each term from the PMI (Pearson VUE) content outline and primary sources, listed under Sources on this page. The game is independent study material, not an official exam resource.
What is the CAPM exam pass rate?
PMI does not publish official CAPM pass-rate statistics. The exam uses 150 questions (about 135 scored, 15 unscored pretest) in 180 minutes, split into two 75-question sections by one scheduled 10-minute break. It uses criteria-based scoring, so PMI does not publish a universal number of correct answers required to pass.
How hard is the CAPM compared to the PMP?
CAPM targets foundational project management knowledge and application for entry and associate roles; PMP targets judgment informed by project leadership experience. Their audiences differ, and neither has a universal difficulty ranking. Use a diagnostic to plan preparation rather than treating a study-hour range as a measured candidate average.
